SSC CHSL - 6 Aug 2021 - Shift 2 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q72

A train is running at a speed of 99 km/h. If the train is 565 m long, then what will be the time (in seconds) taken by it to cross a 975 m long tunnel?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 56.

The total distance to be covered = 565 + 975 = 1540 m

Time taken = 1540/(99 × 5/18)

⇒ (1540 × 18)/(99 × 5)

⇒ 56 seconds
